A small folding schoolboard becomes a philosophical object in GELA MIKAVA’s “TEACH ME TO UNLEARN.”
The phrase, written upside down, challenges the viewer to reorient their perspective — both literally and mentally. What once symbolized obedience and order now questions the act of learning itself.
This work transforms a child’s tool of education into a quiet rebellion, a reflection on how knowledge is built, imposed, and eventually dismantled.
MIKAVA invites us to unlearn what we were taught — to rediscover freedom in forgetting.
